Considerable evidence indicates that the null model of community structure is incorrect because .
a. each species responds independently of other species to the prevailing physical environment.
b. interactions among species have no significant influence on community structure.
c. when one species is removed, the populations of the other species are unaffected.
d. species interactions modify the fundamental niche of the species involved, influencing their relative abundance and, in some cases, their distribution.

D) option is correct

Explanation:

Null model of community structure describes the communities which occur in the absence of a mechanism

Fundamental niche represents all the environmental conditions where a species is able to live or can live, there are no ecological barriers present in this type of niche

Species interactions modify the fundamental niche as a result distribution and abundance of species changes, ecological barriers comes into existence and fundamental niche changes into realized niche where species actually lives

Hunting in the darksome fish rely on senses beyond sight. in the darkness of the marianas trench, a fish called the rattail has an extremely sensitive sense of smell. the fish uses scent, rather than sight, to steer toward food. once it's near food, the rattail uses a special organ on the bottom of its chin to guide itself by feel.marine snowone staple of the deep sea diet is "marine snow," flakes of organic, edible substances that sink down from the upper ocean. animals at the ocean's bottom find sustenance in everything from the bodies of dead creatures to fecal matter. marine snow is diverse enough to support numerous species. for instance, several species of snails and worms feed exclusively on deceased whales.microorganismsthe deep sea is an intricate ecosystem, and even the ocean floor itself plays a part. hydrothermal vents are cracks in the sea floor where erupting magma mixes with ocean water to produce plumes of hot, sulfur-rich chemicals. some microbes can use these chemicals for energy, sustaining their existence and that of the animals who depend on their roles in the deep sea food chain.
